Look out Southern Living Magazine, we are coming for the "Most Charming Neighborhood in the South" award! The Virginia Highland District Association is proposing a $600k project to bring a cohesive and elevated aesthetic to the historic North Highland Ave corridor through professional landscaping and lighting complemented by art, events, and amenities.

The Vision

The North Highland Beautification Project scopes a 10-year vision to enhance the business district nodes from Morningside Village to Atkins Park. In these business district nodes you will see: 

  • Warm white uplighting on trees year-round
  • Self-watering hanging baskets and lush planters in front of every business
  • Large in-ground landscapes/hardscapes along the corridor 
  • Protected and newly landscaped tree beds
  • Branded light pole banners

Healthy Spaces = Healthy People

Why undertake these improvements? In almost every urban planning study, these enhancements are crucial for creating a safe, beautiful, and cohesive commercial corridor.

The vision will benefit not only our cherished small businesses but all residents and visitors alike who will enjoy a more inviting environment, uplifting this corridor and maintaining its status as one of the top destinations in Atlanta.
